About this map

Superior National Forest encompasses this wilderness area in northern Minnesota, where a dense network of glacial lakes and interconnecting waterways remains largely untouched by development. The landscape is defined by its dramatic hydrology, featuring prominent bodies of water like the elongated Angleworm Lake and the S Hegman and N Hegman Lake pair. Near the Hegman lakes, the Pictured Rocks stand as a notable terrain feature, suggesting the geological character of the region's shoreline.

Human presence is minimal and concentrated around the Angleworm Lookout Tower and a few secondary roads like Co HWY 116 and Mackie RD. The drainage system is intricate, with the Stuart River and various creeks such as Spring Cr and Second Cr winding through the forest. Named features like Whisky Jack Lake, Ed Shave Lake, and Hardtack Lake provide specific points of reference for those tracing the history of this protected woodland or mapping ancient portage routes through the lake country.
